MAPLE PARK – About 600people gathered Monday infront of 1,000 American flagsto honor those who gave theultimate sacrifice. Two thou-sand more flags were set upthroughout the Kanelandcampus.

A Memorial Day ceremo-ny was held on the KanelandHigh School grounds northof the Healing Field alongKeslinger Road. The fieldconsisted of 1,000 flags, sev-eral of which had yellow tagsattached to them containingmessages that people left forveterans.

Between the ceremonyand the high school buildingwas a crane that had a largeAmerican flag raised about100 feet in the air.

The Elburn, Sugar Groveand Maple Park AmericanLegions each had their ownMemorial Day morning cer-emonies, but the afternoonceremony was a chance forall of them to come togeth-er with the Kaneland HighSchool band and staff, saidRudy Keller, the school’s in-terim athletic director andan organizer of the event.

“The Fourth of July is tocelebrate, Veterans Day isto honor, but Memorial Dayis to mourn,” Keller saidduring the event.

Don Grillo, commanderof the Maple Park AmericanLegion, gave a Memorial Dayaddress and read aloud thenames of 12 local fallen he-roes. That list included threeKaneland High School alum-ni, who all served in the U.S.Army – Sgt. Robert Domena,a 1990 graduate; specialistEdwin Turk Jr., a 1962 grad-uate and specialist RichardWormdahl, a 1963 graduate.

Every veteran at the cer-emony was invited to takepart in a wreath-laying cere-mony for his or her specificbranch of the military. About

25 veterans emerged from thecrowd to participate, includ-ing U.S. Army veteran HankGrytza of Michigan. Grytzawas in town to visit his sonScott’s family in Elburn.

“It was very moving,”Grytza said of the ceremony.

Grytza said it’s import-ant for people to realize thattheir freedom came fromgreat sacrifices. Another one

of his five sons, Tom, is re-tired after serving 23 years inthe U.S. Air Force, includingOperation Desert Storm.

Dennis and Sue Gold-en of Rochelle also were atthe event. Dennis Goldenis a U.S. Army veteran whoserved in Germany duringthe Vietnam War. Goldensat next to her sister and fel-low Rochelle resident KarenPearson, who brought all herchildren and grandchildren.

Golden and Pearson saidthey always have attendedarea Memorial Day services.Monday also was a familyreunion of sorts – Pearson’sdaughter, Mary Kunstman,

and her husband, Bryan, bothteach music in the KanelandSchool District.

Golden and Pearson’s fa-ther, Calvin Strang, was aWorld War II veteran of theU.S. Army Air Corps and thepredecessor to the U.S. AirForce. Strang led a small Me-morial Day service in Lind-enwood for about 50 years,Pearson said.

“He’s just instilled in usthat this is important,” Pear-son said. “It’s just somethingthat we have to do as a fam-ily.”

Elburn Village Board OKstemporary assistant position

By AL [email protected]

ELBURN – The Elburn Vil-lage Board last week provideda green light for staff to seeka temporary position of part-time office assistant. The per-son hired will focus on utilitybilling.

Village AdministratorErin Willrett said the positionwas necessary because of anemployee’s extended absence.Willrett called it a workerscompensation situation. Oth-er staff members have filledin, but she said help was nec-essary because “we’re miss-ing things, and we’re strug-gling to keep our heads abovewater.”

Trustees were supportiveof the hire, and the positionhas been posted at the vil-lage’s website. But there wasdiscussion about whether theposition would be permanentor temporary. Willrett at firstsuggested it could be a perma-nent new position, but sometrustees balked at that.

Trustee Jeff Walter askedwhat the “net new work”would be. Willrett said therewas no net new work, but

that nobody was covering thework that needed to be done atthis point. Walter said he un-derstood that the new positionwould be necessary while theexisting employee was out.

“But what happens whenshe comes back? … I don’tknow why we need anotherposition. I don’t see the needfor it,” Walter said.

Ultimately, it was agreedthat the position would belisted as a temporary posi-tion. Willrett said it would beless than 1,000 hours a year.The successful candidate willreport to Doug Elder, the vil-lage’s finance director.

Willrett said the position is“not just data entry,” and thatthe village would be “looking

for someone with municipalexperience.” She said the po-sition calls for “dealing withnot-so-pleasant things,” aswell as understanding the vil-lage’s software.

According to the job de-scription of the website post-ing of the position, the officeassistant position requires“the ability to work with an-gry or difficult customers,”as well as the “ability to workunder pressure and/or fre-quent interruptions.”

The job posting calls for ap-plicants to send in resumes nolater than June 16. Salary wasnot discussed at the meeting,and the job posting states that“salary is dependent on quali-fications.”

Jan Nelson

I hate to admit it and probably shouldn’t but I don’t like to clean

and tend a yard. I’ll be honest; I have better things to do with my

time. I would rather travel, visit with friends, take long walks andpursue my other interests. I love everything that Oak Crest offers and my family and I areespecially appreciative that Oak Crest has taken much of the work and worry out of my future.

Been there, done that pretty much sums up life before Oak Crest. Haven’t been there, haven’t

done it yet sums up life now. Come and enjoy the Oak Crest experience.

ST. CHARLES – Art lov-ers flocked to downtown St.Charles over the weekend toget their creative fix.

T h e 1 6 t h A n n u a l S t .Charles Fine Art Show washost to 108 juried artists withpaintings, pottery, glass,bronze and more for sale.

The event also includedchats with some of the artistsexplaining their work andprocess.

Attendees took in art aswell as free live music andtrolley rides.

Not only was the weathernice, but people kept sayingit was the best show they’veever seen, said Sue McDowell,the event’s committee chair.

The Art Show committeeworks to bring in, not just lo-cal families, but art enthusi-asts from across the Chicagoarea.

The main appeal is ofcourse the artwork, and thefact that the event is diversebut not overwhelming, Mc-Dowell said.

“I think they like the sizeof the show – it’s walkable,”she said.

Sharon Perez of St. Charlesand her family on Saturdaytraveled across the entirelength of the show with ease.She and her husband, Jason,were looking for artwork fortheir living room and alsotheir one-year-old son J.C.’sroom.

Two booths that caughtPerez’s eye included the na-ture-themed work of Elgin’sRobert Rydin and the car-toon-esque art of Green Bay’sMelvin McGee.

“We love it,” Perez said ofthe event. “We always go tothe art shows in the area.”

Perez said she and herfamily have attended the St.Charles show for at least thepast four years.

Saturday was Lori Wood-

cock’s first time at the show.She brought her son, Mat-thew, 15, and daughter, Abi-gail, 9, to check out the art be-fore dinner.

“I think it’s terrific,”Woodcock said of the show.“It’s a nice way to come outand enjoy the weather.”

Woodcock is a jewelrymaker and will consider ap-plying in the future to exhibitat the show.

Members of another artis-tic family, the Barbagallos ofRockford, have been part ofthe show for 15 of its last 16years.

Shawn Barbagallo, whosefather Jim introduced to claypottery when he was three,said the St. Charles showin general has always beengreat.

The younger Barbagallospent part of his Saturday ona pottery wheel in front of aconsistent crowd. He even letsome children try their handat the craft.

“If you can instill potteryinto children and make themhave a love for it, that’s agreat thing,” Barbagallo said.

TAMPA, Florida —If Pharmacist of the Year,

Dr. Gene Steiner, had a nickelfor every time someoneleaned over the counter andwhispered, “Do you haveanything that can improve mymemory,” he would be a richman today.It’s a question he’s heard

countless times in his 45-yearcareer. He has seen familiestorn apart by the anguishof memory loss and mentaldecline, a serious concernthat threatens the independentlifestyle seniors hold so dearly.In his years-long search

for a drug or nutrient thatcould slow mental decline,x| �j�tt� {idj} ex| �jf�|gin the pages of an obscuremedical journal.“Iwasstudyingmaterialsaboutmemory loss and cognitivedecline, and there it was, rightin front of me...evidence of areal memory pill!”“At the time, I was an anchor fora medical program in LosAngeles.I was so excited that I contacted theauthor of the research and invitedhim to come on the program asa guest.”

“I wanted millions of lis-teners to learn about this im-portant new development!”Dr. Steiner’s guest that night,US researcher, Josh Reyn-olds, observed a common‘disturbance’ in aging brains,one that may be the primarycause of degrading memoryand concentration powers.

Gasping for Air?He saw evidence that

older brains were ‘gaspingfor additional oxygen,’ aproblem caused by poorblood circulation.

z�jfd{�~v|je ~vg~dt�evij�nsays Steiner, “reduces oxygento the brain, a sign of prema-ture mental decline. This alsorestricts the supply of critical�g�vj fh|~v�~ �jevi�v}�jefand nutrients.”p|}d~|} �tii} �i� x�f �j-other brain-numbing effect:it slashes the number of neu-rotransmitters in the brain,the messenger moleculesused by the brain to help formthoughts, retrieve memories,and help its owner stay fo-cused and on-task.

Fewer neurotransmit-ters circulating in the braintranslates to concentrationand memory woes.So, Reynolds and a team ofscientists developed a natural,drug-free compound shownin research to prompt agingbrains to begin to ‘think andreact,’ younger.

Tired Brains Snap Awake!“It helps tired, forgetful

brains to ‘snap awake,” saysDr. Steiner.“This natural memory pill isto your aging, sluggish brain,what a breath of fresh air is to

your lungs,” he says.It works so well,

explains Steiner, thatthe participants in apeer-reviewed, in-ternational researchstudy not only sawimprovements intheir memory, moodand concentration,but they also re-gained lost memoryrecall speed equal tothat of someone upto 15 years younger,

all in a 30-day time period!This made perfect sense

to Dr. Steiner, who knew in-stinctively that age-relatedmemory problems may becorrectable.

After the ShowAfter the show, Dr. Steiner~ij�}|} ei xvf yd|fe ex�e x|was fearful of not being ableto recall certain subject mat-ter for his popular radio show.“He gave me a couple of

bottles and instructed me onits use,” says Dr. Steiner.

“Within a few weeks, I cantell you without reservationthat my memory becamecrystal clear!”

Feeding an Older BrainThe formula helps

oxygenate listless brain cellsto revitalize and protect themfrom free radicals caused bystress and toxins.It also helps restore depletedneurotransmitter levels, whilefeeding the aging mind with�g�vj�fh|~v�~ jdegv|jef �j}protective antioxidants.Steiner was so impressed

that he began recommend-ing the formula to his phar-macy customers.

“I had such marvelousresults that I not only startedrecommending it to my cus-tomers, I even shared it withother physicians!”

Pharmacy Best-Seller“It became the best-sellingbrain health product in mypharmacy and customerswere returning to thank mefor introducing them to it.”“It felt great to see so manypeople whose lives wereenriched by taking a simple,natural formula.”“A rookie doctor right out of

medical school can set a brokenbone, or treat a rash or runnynose,” explains Dr. Steiner.“But he is often clueless

when it comes to helping a

patient who can’t rememberto take his medicine, orforgets where he’s parked hiscar, or even worse, foolishlyleaves the oven on at night.”“With this simple, drug-{g|| {igkdt�� | �j�tt�have something that we canrecommend that is safe andeffective. And you don’t needa prescription either!”Recently, Dr. Steiner relo-

cated to another state and wasapprehensive about takingthe state board of pharmacyjurisprudence examination,a daunting examination thattests a candidate’s mastery ofpharmacy law.“I began taking the naturalmemory compound prior tothe test, and I passed with��vjy ~itigfln“The recall I personally ex-perienced was fantastic,” saysSteiner.Many frontline healthcare

professionals are embracingthis natural remedy for threereasons.First, the formula was sub-

mitted to the rigors of a pla-cebo-controlled, randomized,double-blind clinical trial, us-ing the same FDA-sanctionedbrain testing protocols used toqualify prescription-sold cog-nitive medicines.zmx| �j}vjyf {ig vkhgic|}brain function were shock-ing,” says Steiner.

Then, the results were

shared with the world in awell-respected, peer-reviewedmedical journal, JANA.

#1 Selling BrainHealth Pill

Thirdly, this natural,memory-boosting wonder haspassed the toughest yardstickof all – scrutiny from the USconsumer.

Word has spread; in avery short time, Reynolds’memory-booster has quicklybecome the #1-selling brainhealth supplement in theUnited States.

Dr. Steiner estimatesthat as much as 45 millionsingle-doses have beenused with excellent resultsby ‘lots of forgetful folks.’Users like Selwyn Howell*agree. He credits the memorycompound with bolstering his~ij�}|j~|�“It helped me speak out

more than I used to. I amgrowing more confident ev-ery day.”Carey S.* reports, “I feel

so much more focused andI’m now ready to tackle thethings I’ve been putting offfor years!”

Elizabeth K.* of Rochester,NewYork experienced a night-and-day difference in her mindand memory. At the age of 54,hermemorywas declining at an“alarming rate.”

“I read a newspaper articleabout it.”“It took about a month for thek|kig� �|j|�e ei uv~u vj� ov�months later, even my husbandwas impressed with my im-proved memory.And I am veryhappy with my renewedmentalclarity and focus!”“I highly recommend it,” saysDr. Steiner. “This drug-freecompound is the perfect sup-plement for increasing one’sbrain power.

150-plus kids partake in triathlonBy ERIC SCHELKOPF

[email protected]

GENEVA – Greta Wim-berger said she knew shewanted to do her best in Sun-day’s Multisport MadnessTriathlon Team TriathlonFestival.

“The support from myteam and the people whocame out to watch kept me go-ing,” said the 8-year-old Sug-ar Grove resident.

Cadence Fitness andHealth Center in Genevahosted the event, now in its14th year.

With a time of 17 minutes,30 seconds, Wimberger fin-ished first in her age groupin the triathlon’s junior divi-sion. As part of the triathlon,Greta competed in a 125-me-ter swim, a 2-mile bicycle rideand a half-mile run.

She said she enjoyed bicy-cling the best.

“It wasn’t too hard, and itwasn’t too easy,” Greta said.“You got to go on a hill ratherthan being on flat ground.”

Her 6-year-old brother,Peter Wimberger, also partic-ipated. He also said he liked

the bicycling portion of thetriathlon the best.

“It’s my favorite,” he said.He was eating a granola

bar to get his strength back,saying the event “was tiring.”

Their mother, Teri Wim-berger, said she was appre-ciative of the support that thespectators provided.

“Everybody cheers every-body on,” she said.

Sunny skies provided per-fect weather conditions forthe race.

“We lucked out,” said racedirector John Lorenz, whoalso serves as the team direc-tor. “We couldn’t have askedfor a better day.”

More than 150 kids par-ticipated in this year’s youthtriathlon, exposing them towhat being a triathlon athlete

is about. Lorenz said that wasideal for organizers.

“For us, it’s about gettingkids into the sport,” Lorenzsaid.

In addition, the USA Tri-athlon recently selectedthis year’s event to includea mixed team relay supersprint series race, allowingadults to compete in the raceas well.

“Instead of just being kids,you have parents competingwith kids,” Lorenz said.

With a time of 30 minutesand 58 seconds, Cooper Lan-ganis, 16, of Cary, took secondplace in the triathlon’s elitedivision, which included a375-meter swim, a 6.2-mile bi-cycle ride and a 1.55-mile run.

“They’re all hard in differ-ent ways,” he said. “The runis the hardest because it’s thelast event.”

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Rush diagnosis on Veterans AffairsTHE WASHINGTON POST

The men and women whohave served their country inuniform deserve better thandelay or denial of the medicalcare they need and haveearned. So it is crucial to getto the bottom of allegationsof misconduct at the nation’sveterans hospitals. Ameri-ca’s veterans also deservenot to be treated as so manypawns in election-yeargamesmanship – but that sad-ly is proving to be the casein Congress’ increasinglyhyperbolic response.

President Obama madehis first public commentslast week on the growingcontroversy surroundingallegations that workers at

hospitals run by the Depart-ment of Veterans Affairsmanipulated data or createdsecret waiting lists to hidethe delays that veteransfaced before they could see adoctor. Most disturbing havebeen reports of people whodied or were harmed whilewaiting for appointmentsand of internal memos detail-ing techniques to cover upproblems.

Obama rightly expressedhis concern: “I will notstand for it. Not as com-mander in chief, but alsonot as an American. Noneof us should.” He promisedthat people would be heldaccountable for any wrong-doing and any deficiencieswould be addressed. At the

same time, the presidentproperly cautioned thatthe facts still have yet to bedetermined; investigation bythe VA into a number of facil-ities and a broader WhiteHouse review are underway,with preliminary reportsexpected next week.

That the extent of wrong-doing is unclear doesn’t seemto matter much to those moreinterested in scoring politicalpoints. How else to explainthe knee-jerk calls, mainlyby Republicans in the Houseand Senate, for the ouster ofVeterans Affairs SecretaryEric K. Shinseki or the ill-ad-vised and punitive legislationaimed at VA workers?

Shinseki’s contributionsinclude Army service that

saw him losing part of hisfoot to a land mine in Viet-nam and his success as sec-retary in reducing veteranhomelessness and expandingservices. But they apparentlyaren’t as important as thefact that his understateddemeanor was derided bya late-night comedian. It’sbeyond us to imagine how de-nying bonuses to VA employ-ees would aid recruitment ofthe very professionals whomight help reduce the back-logs that cause the delays ingetting appointments.

No doubt the VA has itsproblems. Delayed treatmenthas been an issue for de-cades, and the back-to-backwars of Iraq and Afghani-stan with their unique set

of injuries have created afurther strain. But as wasmade clear in recent testimo-ny to the Senate Committeeon Veterans’ Affairs, studieshave shown that the VA sys-tem, which serves almost 6.5million veterans annually, asa whole outperforms the restof the health care system byjust about every metric. Sur-veys also show that veteransgive VA hospitals and clinicsa higher customer satis-faction than patients giveprivate-sector hospitals.

It’s important that the cur-rent problems be addressed.But they also ought to bekept in context and veteransnot made, as the presidentput it, into “another politicalfootball.”

S T . C H A R L E S – S t .Charles East senior pitchersMike Boehmer and AdamEck find that much hasn’tchanged since their firstencounter in seventh gradetravel ball.

“We were complete oppo-sites even then,” Boehmersaid. “Normally, it’d eitherbe I’d start and he would fin-ish the game, or he wouldstart and I would finish it.Because it was just two com-pletely different looks.”

Boehmer, a control-basedright-hander who’s a fewinches shorter than Eck, ahard-throwing lefty, willtake the reins of the Saints’postseason pitching with histeammate.

But, much like last season,when they largely were un-derstudies on a senior-ladenstaff, both starters know andtrust in the team’s bullpen re-inforcements.

“It definitely helps to havea bunch of guys who can pitch

so our arms aren’t sore andso guys are good to go whenthey’re needed,” Eck said.

East coach Len Asquinifigures there’s no reason todisrupt the balance creat-ed by two seniors who werereliable innings-eaters andhelped the Saints stay in thethick of the Upstate EightConference River Divisionrace for much of the season.

The Saints outscored Riv-er champion Batavia, 7-5, in

taking two of three games towin a conference series inlate April. The staff allowedjust 21 runs in the team’s lastnine River games, winningeight.

Junior left-hander AustinRegelbrugge, whose velocityis only slightly behind Eck’smid-80s range, served as thethird starter during the reg-ular season. On Saturday, ju-nior Kyle Cook reinforced theSaints’ depth with a no-hitter

at Lake Park to close the reg-ular season.

In the playoffs, Regelbrug-ge will look to fill in as thefirst arm out of the bullpen,following the lead of 2013graduate Troy Dykhuis, whocomplemented fellow seniorsMatt Starai and Nick Hus-kisson as the Saints finishedfourth in class 4A.

“That third guy, do we goto him quicker? Maybe wego to him a little bit quicker

if we get into a little troubleand we’ve got a little moreconfidence because thatguy’s got a lot of innings, a lotof experience,” Asquini said.

Juniors Jake Milosch andMick Vyzral also have beeneffective, with each Vyzralsave adding to a single-sea-son school record that standsat eight entering the 4A Hoff-man Estates Regional.

Vyzral entered the seasonas a starting candidate butfilled into a role that neededplugging, too.

“We don’t have to go outthere and throw every in-ning,” Boehmer said. “Weknow if we can get four orfive innings in, we know Vyzis going to go out there andget the save.”

East noticed a promisingpitching trend developing in2013, when it advanced to thePhil Lawler Summer Clas-sic state tournament on theheels of the IHSA state run.

“We like that. It helps uswhen a guy gets in trouble,we go right to another guy weknow is going to pound thezone, hit his spots,” Asqui-ni said. “And on top of that,those top three, four guys canbe so different in how theydeliver and what their stuffis.”

Boehmer and Eck knowwhat that’s about.

8WHAT TO WATCH

By JAY [email protected]

The temptation to look forward to a potentialblockbuster regional championship game withBurlington Central is powerful for the Kanelandsoftball team, but the Knights have one majorfactor that should help them guard against do-ing so – May 25, 2013.

The Knights were a huge favorite in lastyear’s regional final against Rosary but ab-sorbed a shocking, 7-6, defeat to the sub-.500 Roy-als that ended Kaneland’s season with a hollowfeeling despite the Knights’ 23-4 final record.

As Kaneland prepares to open postsea-son play in Wednesday’s IHSA Class 3A Bur-lington Central Regional semifinal againstGenoa-Kingston, that jarring loss should serveas a cautionary tale.

“If we didn’t learn from it then, we wouldn’tbe very good players or coaches if we didn’t takesomething out of that loss,” Kaneland coach Bri-an Willis said.

The Knights (19-11) have played their bestsoftball in recent weeks, including a rare three-win day to cap the regular season Saturday asKaneland swept a doubleheader at Rosary andalso beat West Aurora.

Genoa-Kingston is a less familiar opponentfor the Knights, but that’s OK by Willis.

“I think I’d rather not know than worry aboutthis or worry about that,” Willis said. “The waywe’re playing, I know we’re going to go out andbe competitive. It really doesn’t matter who’sacross on the other side.”

If top-seeded Burlington Central and sec-ond-seeded Kaneland can avert midweek up-sets, a regional championship game betweenthe teams Saturday carries an unavoidable sto-ryline.

Knights junior pitcher Angie Morrow trans-ferred from Central to Kaneland this year andwould be going against her former school forthe first time. The teams were scheduled to playearly this season, but the game was postponedbecause of weather conditions and was not

Best first-round matchup: (11)Rosary vs. (7) Wheaton Academyat 3A Lemont Regional semifi-nal, 4:30 p.m. Wednesday.

For all the reminders,schedules, phone numbersand phrases that appearon the whiteboard in theCougars’ home clubhouse,players keep one importantitem internalized.

Some spring trainingadvice from Anthony Iapoce,a special assistant to thegeneral manager and playerdevelopmentdepartmentfor the parentCubs, reallyresonated.

Iapoce’s tu-telage involvesfans, so listenup, Cougarsbackers:

“He talks about changinglives. I mean, you neverknow who’s watching upthere,” infielder David Bote

said. “There’s a little kidwho doesn’t know anythingabout baseball. So you playthe game hard, play the gamethe right way, you know. ‘Iwant to try that one time.I want to try baseball likehe’s playing. Who knows,maybe I can make the MajorLeagues someday.’

“But just changing lives,just playing the game rightno matter who’s watching.If it’s a bunch of kids or it’sa bunch of scouts, it doesn’tmatter, you know. You playthe game right and if one ofthose kids comes away say-

ing they want to try baseball,that’s awesome.”

Entering today’s 11 a.m.series finale against Peoria,the Cougars have played toan average crowd of 4,691fans over 28 home dates thisseason, good for second inthe 16-team Midwest League.

What’s more, fans areseeing the first-place team inthe MWL’s Western Divi-sion, one that hasn’t shownany signs of overthinkingthe first-half stretch run.

“They’re going abouttheir business like theyalways have and they’re apretty even-keeled group,so they’re just going togo out and play hard likethey’ve been doing all year,”manager Mark Johnsonsaid. “There’s nothing anydifferent.”

The heat is on: First-pitcht e m p e r a t u r efor the first fivegames of theCougars’ cur-rent six-gameh o m e s t a n dregistered at arespective 67,65, 71, 78 and 81degrees.

Talk abouta long-await-ed warmingtrend.

“Oh, myGod. All ofus from thesouth werelike, ‘Man,when does itget hot up here?’ ” catcher/

third baseman Ben Carhart,a Floridian, said.

Tee it up: Better weatheralso means better opportuni-ties to golf.

Among the this week’sdeals is a midday special atSettler’s Hill in Batavia. Bypresenting an online couponavailable at www.settler-shill.com, golfers can play18 holes with a cart for $25for all tee times from noon to1:57 p.m. today and Wednes-day.

rescheduled.“It’s just a different dynam-

ic to a game,” Central coachWade Maisto said of a poten-tial meeting with Kaneland.“You can say what you want,but it’s just a different elementto the game, of the importance,getting fired up, etc. You cansay all you want that’s it’s justanother team. It pretty muchis, but if you’re going outthrowing against a school youused to be a part of, your juicesare going to be flowing, there’sno doubt about it. That’s justhuman nature.”

Morrow, a Wisconsin re-cruit, pitched for the Rocketsas a freshman, then missed hersophomore season because ofinjury.

She’s contributed to theKnights’ late-season uptickafter knocking away any lin-gering rust, firing a shutout inSaturday’s 1-0 win over WestAurora.

Morrow said she will do herbest to focus on the job at handif the Rockets stand in Kane-land’s way.

“I think my mentality go-ing into the game is going to

have to be I don’t know any ofthe girls on the team and I’mplaying to win, and whatev-er happens, happens,” Mor-row said. “But I can’t go intothe game saying ‘Oh, I knowthis girl or I know I needto throw this against thisgirl.’ I just have to go into

it, yeah, I know this girl isgood, and I have to get herout. I can’t think of namesand I can’t think of the past. Ijust have to live in the pres-ent.”

Keeping human nature atbay might prove especiallytricky against Central sluggerand Northern Illinois recruitBekah Harnish.

The two have remainedtight despite Morrow’s trans-fer.

“I knew we were closeenough,” Morrow said. “Weare pretty much sisters, so Iknew we would be perfectlyfine.”

Morrow’s pitching coun-terpart in a potential Centralmatchup is uncertain. Maistoconsiders Brooke Gaylord andEmily Kisch co-aces.

“They both have pitchedwell enough to deserve starts[in the postseason], but there’sno rule that says you can’t useboth of them in a game, too,”Maisto said. “I certainly don’thave to leave one in if thingsaren’t going very well, so itgives me some nice options touse. I don’t just have to haveone pitcher that, good or bad,I’m going to go with them, andthat’s been the case a lot ofyears.”

Vikings, Saintsseize momentum

By JACOB [email protected]

SCHAUMBURG – The Ge-neva and St. Charles East boysvolleyball teams fought on tolive another day as play openedMonday at the IHSA Schaum-burg Regional.

In the first regional quarter-final of the day, Geneva (17-16)came out roaring in the firstset, handing opponent Whea-ton Academy (17-15) a sound25-13 defeat.

However, the momentumshifted heavily towards theWarriors in Set 2. Thanks toa consistent attack, WheatonAcademy stormed back in Set2, defeating Geneva, 25-11.

“We changed up the defensetoward the end of [set 1]. [Ge-neva] was on a roll, and weweren’t playing well. … Wemoved [the ball] around a littlebit, and it really worked in ourfavor,” Warriors coach D.A.Nichols said.

After a series of timeoutswith both teams trading thelead, Set 3 would ultimately fallin Geneva’s favor, with the Vi-kings prevailing 25-19, and se-curing a match against BuffaloGrove in a regional semifinalat 5:30 p.m. today.

East will face the host Sax-ons in a 6:30 p.m. semifinalafter sweeping Upstate EightConference River Division ri-val Elgin, 25-15, 25-18 in Mon-day’s second quarterfinal.

“We’ve played Elgin a lotthroughout the season, and Ithink both teams knew what[they] were getting into whenwe started,” Saints coach KateMcCullagh said. “Hard workand practice have gotten uswhere we are.”

Geneva, which shared theUEC River title with East andSt. Charles North, can attest.

Nick Buseski (13 kills) andChris Parrilli (10) paced Gene-va’s attack while David Franzled the team with 20 assists.

“We knew this would be amatch of momentum, so wemade sure we came out [in Set3] and [gave] everything wehad, and did the little things,”Parrilli said.

Geneva coach KC Johnsenlauded his team’s effort, espe-

cially after the Warriors’ sec-ond-set domination.

“I was happy with the waywe were willing to compete andbattle in the third set, especial-ly when [Wheaton Academy]had so much more confidence.We stepped up and met thatchallenge,” Johnsen said.

Even with the defeat, Nich-ols was proud of his squad andsees a bright future for theteam, citing the return of 11 se-niors next season.

“This will be a good experi-ence [for us],” Nichols said.

In the next quarterfinal,East (24-12) and Elgin (7-29)squared off in fast-paced match,with the Saints ultimatelysweeping the Maroons out ofpostseason play.

Elgin kept it close early inSet 1, only trailing, 11-7, at thefirst timeout. However, theSaints would turn up the inten-sity, and play tough defense tocruise to a 25-15 win.

The Saints had no shortageof help, getting contributionsfrom a variety of players, in-cluding senior Joey Leaman,who paced his team with 12digs.

“We’ve got a very strongfront row,” Leaman said. “Weworked on getting good passes,so we could feed them and theycould score points for us.”

The Saints’ Tom Wolfsmithadded 10 kills, while teammateTom DeBruyne dished out 31assists.

In Set 2, Elgin fought hard,but ultimately fell short.

Kyle Paquin led the Ma-roons with seven kills, whileteammate Eric Hernandez had12 assists in the match.

CHARLESTON – JordanShead twice found a way tobring the Saints home duringthe final lap of relays in Satur-day’s IHSA Class 3A state trackand field meet.

The senior first helped herSt. Charles East teammateswin the 4x800-meter when shecaught a runner from LoyolaAcademy on the back stretchof her second lap. She thenpulled away and then kickedit in on the final curve to handthe Saints relay team the 4x800state title.

“I haven’t run that many800 meters,” Shead said. “I keptthinking that this champion-ship isn’t just for me, it’s for ev-eryone, and I can’t let everyonedown.”

She replicated this perfor-mance in the 4x400, the finalevent of the day, when sheused her long strides to catch arunner from Lincoln-Way Easton the same backstretch beforeaccelerating a few steps aheadon the final straightway to en-able East to defend its state ti-tle by clocking in at 3 minutesand 49.33 seconds.

Shead was among severallocal state champions in Satur-day’s meet at Eastern IllinoisUniversity’s O’Brien Stadium.

Aurora Central Catholic’sKarina Liz set a state recordin winning the 800 in Class 2A,sprinting the final 150 yards toa time of 2:10.73. Liz extendedher lead on the final lap’s back-stretch, creating a 10-yard lead.

“Everyone started out real-ly fast,” Liz said. “I wanted tolead from the beginning, but Ididn’t want to cut my energy.”

Liz, undefeated in the 800this season, wanted to break2:10 but she said she hit a markthat was good enough for her.

“When I turned around andlooked at my time, I was so ex-cited I started jumping around– as much as I could jump,”Liz said. “It’s a good feeling be-cause I’ve wanted to win statesince I was in eighth grade.”

Aurora Christian capturedthe Class 1A team title with49 points behind first-placefinishes from Natasha Brown,who ran 25.37 in the 200, andsecond-places finishes from

Peyton Wade in both the longjump (18 feet, 2.5 inches) andhigh jump (5-7), and from its4x100 and 4x200 relay teams ofAlyssa Andersen, Meghan Ha-gerty, Hope Montalbano andNatasha Brown, which clockedin at 49.47 and 1:43.29, respec-tively.

St. Charles East finishedthird overall in Class 3A with38 points, one point behindWest Aurora, while Kanelandtook 11th overall in Class 2Awith 21 points.

But one of the biggest sur-prises was East’s victory in the4x800. East had led for much ofthe race after Anastasia Honeatook an early lead of about 27meters during the second leg.Torree Scull kept the Saintsnear the front before passing toHonea, who handed off the leadto Corrin Adams, who battledto remain near the front beforeShead took over to bring theteam home in 9:08.03.

“I tried to run my first lapconservatively,” Honea said. “Ijust tried to stick with the per-son in front of me.”

In the 4x400, AllisonChmelik took the baton for thesecond lap, padding the leadgiven by her twin sister, Eliz-abeth. By the time she handedoff to Casey McNichols, Eastled by about 18 meters. WhenShead started her final lap, theSaints trailed by about fourmeters.

“I knew that I was in secondand I had a little work to do,but I knew I could rely on mykick,” Shead said.

The lead runner for the re-lay, Elizabeth Chmelik, saidthat watching her teammateswas unnerving.

“It was really terrifyingto watch, but the girls ranso well,” she said. “It feels soamazing and I am relieved. I’mgoing to have a lot of motiva-tion for next year.”

East coach Tim Wolf saidthat putting Shead as the an-chor for the 4x800 was a strate-

gic move.“We turned some heads this

morning with the win in the4x800,” Wolf said. “You couldtell people [were] looking at us.I’m speechless. People steppedup today above and beyond.We knew what was at stakeand that we had to win the4x400 to solidify a trophy.”

Several other East athletesplaced in the top six. Sheadplaced fourth in the 400 in

56.53, as did Scull in the 1,600 in5:01.6, while Allison Chmeliktook fifth in the triple jump in36 feet, 9.5 inches.

The 4x100 team of KimAbels, McNichols, Keely Flan-igan and Elizabeth Chmeliktook ninth in 49.83 seconds.

Kaneland’s Nicole Sreenantook third in the Class 2A 400by finishing strong to clock56.34 seconds, and she tookeighth in the 100 in 12.5 sec-onds. Teammates Olivia Ga-lor, Sreenan, Sydney Strangand Allie Heinzer placed sev-enth in the 4x400 with 4:01.60,while the 4x200 relay of Galor,Becca Richtman, Heinzer andCarly Elliott finished eighth in1:45.25.

Elliott, Heinzer, Sreenanand Lauren Zick placed sixthin the 4x100 in 49.03 seconds.

Among other local athletes,Rosary’s Sarah Nyaeme went36 feet in the triple jump forfifth in Class 2A, and the 4x400relay of Emily Bakala, Mol-ly Stefanski, Shea Vero andAbby Hammer took seventh in4:01.80.

Geneva’s Foster Ignoffoplaced sixth in the 400 in Class3A with a time of 57.41.

Royals upset Knights inshootout to win regional

By JAY [email protected]

AURORA – The grass onRosary’s soccer field alreadywas long when Saturday’sIHSA Class 2A girls soccerregional championship matchbetween the host Royals andKaneland began.

By the time the marathonmatch was settled – includ-ing two overtime periods anda penalty kick shootout – thefield was even more ripe for atrimming.

Overgrown grass or not,the Royals loved their home-field advantage after winningthe penalty kick shootout, 3-1,following scoreless regulationand overtime sessions. Rosaryousted Kaneland in a regionalfinal for the fourth time in fiveyears.

Last year’s meeting – whichrequired a tying goal from Ro-sary with 1:20 to go in regula-tion en route to a double-over-time Royals triumph – tookplace in Rochelle. Saturday’sresult might have been evenmore painful for Kaneland,which was the regional’s topseed and defeated Rosary inboth regular season meetings,2-0 and 3-0. The Knights weredenied what would have beentheir first regional title in pro-gram history.

“I don’t know how it hap-pens, but it did happen,”Kaneland coach Scott Parillosaid. “But you know what, thegirls, they played tough, they

gave it all they had, and some-times your best just isn’t goodenough. It’s just getting prettytiresome that it happens to notbe good enough when we’rehere and playing Rosary.”

Rosary advances to today’s2A Hampshire Sectional semi-final against DeKalb.

Until Saturday, the Roy-als (10-11-1) had dealt with afrustrating spring as variousinjuries have prevented theRoyals from fielding the line-up first-year head coach Bri-an Frank envisioned. One ofthose injured cogs, junior Ma-ria Witte, missed most of theseason with separate injuries,and only returned this weekfor regionals.

Witte, a St. Cloud State(Minnesota) recruit from Bat-avia, scored the match-clinch-ing penalty kick to give Rosa-ry the 3-1 edge in the shootout.

The Royals, with De-Paul-bound senior goalkeeperLauren Frasca, are well-suited

for a shootout. Frasca’s repu-tation – and a dash of games-manship – might have contrib-uted to Kaneland’s shootoutwoes. Only Kaneland’s sec-ond shooter, Madi Jurcenko,converted, while two othershots hit the post and Frascastopped another, diving to herright to deny Nicole Koczka.

“I like to wait until they’reset up so I can have time toset up myself,” Frasca said.“That’s my approach. I got inthere and really felt comfort-able. I knew [Koczka] was aright-footed shooter and I sawher back up, saw her line up …just to get that touch on it wasunreal.”

Frasca also took a PK in theshootout but sailed her shothigh. Lizzie Kelley and Kath-erine Thielen made their PKsfor the Royals before Kane-land goalkeeper Emily Chap-man stopped Rosary’s fourthattempt, momentarily keepingthe Knights (14-4-2) afloat.

Kaneland maintainedmuch of the possession inthe first half but both teamsmanaged periods of pressureas the match unfolded. Kane-land senior defender DelaneyStryczek’s header was incheshigh from giving the Knights afirst-half lead.

Rosary junior QuincyKellett had the Royals’ bestscoring chance of regulationwith about 26:30 to play in thesecond half but her attemptappeared to be tipped off thecrossbar by Chapman.

Geneva girls soccertakes home regional

By JARED [email protected]

GENEVA – No one on theGeneva girls soccer teamknew that going into Satur-day’s IHSA Class 3A region-al championship match, theVikings’ opponent, Glen-bard North, had given uponly 15 goals this season.

The Vikings were sur-prised to hear that fact afterthe match as they put theball into the net four timesen route to a 4-2 win andtheir third regional title ina row.

Geneva advances to theConant Sectional semifi-nal and will play Conanton Tuesday night after St.Charles East and St. CharlesNorth square off in the firstsemifinal.

“No, I didn’t know that.You know it’s hard in Chi-cagoland soccer to keep tabson teams that aren’t coveredby the local newspapers,” re-sponded Geneva coach Me-gan Owens when told aboutthe Panthers’ total goals al-lowed. “They played a greatgame. They fought hard thewhole game but my kids roseto the challenge.”

Also unaware was Gene-va’s Megan Fitz, who scoredGeneva’s fourth goal mid-way through the second half.

“Oh no, actually I didn’t.We knew they were a goodteam and it would be a hardgame so we just came in andplayed our best,” said the ju-nior.

“Yeah. that’s the mostgoals we’ve given up all sea-son,” said David Stanfield,Glenbard North’s coach.“We made some basic mis-takes early on today that re-ally cost us.”

Courtney Lardas startedthe scoring for the Vikings,knocking the ball in from infront of the goal on a passfrom Michaela Loebel sixminutes in.

Mary Landry had back-to-back strikes for Geneva (15-5-2) to improve its lead to 3-0in the first half. She kickedin her first score with an as-

sist by Hope Goodman with17 minutes to play. Landryscored her second goal atthe 11:26 mark. Panthergoalkeeper Ariana DePintoblocked a shot that bouncedback to Landry, who re-turned to the ball back to thenet, and this time it got pastDePinto.

“We created problems forourselves but I felt when youare two down it’s not such ahill to climb,” Stanfield said.“But three down is tough.”

Glenbard North (14-7) cutthe margin to 3-1 with nineminutes left before halftime.A throw-in by GlenbardNorth’s Ashley Pogue wentover Geneva goalkeeperSam Hauser’s outstretchedarms. The ball, which grazedHauser’s fingers, landed be-hind her and gave PantherAmanda Biondo a shot at theunguarded goal.

In the first half, most ofthe action took place on thePanthers’ side of the field.In the second half, play wasbalanced between the twoteams.

“We started the secondhalf well,” Stanfield said.“We were in a good spot andthen we gave up the fourthgoal and it was really hardafter that.”

Fitz’s goal with 20:13 toplay started with a free kickby Maggie Bodine.

“Taylor Williams flippedthe ball back over to me andI lined up my feet,” Fitz said.“I just turned and shot it.”

Owens attributed Glen-bard North’s step up in playto the weather and frequentsubstituting.

“The heat kicked in a lit-tle bit [in the second half].We just had to grind it out,”Owens said.” I also got ev-ery kid in the game, whichis awesome for every kid ona 22-man roster to be able toplay minutes. At times, hav-ing a lot of subs on the fieldcould have affected our playa little bit, but I think weplayed strong throughout.”

Sammy Aron scoredGlenbard North’s secondgoal with 4:39 left to play.

One-of-a-kind collectibles are interestingand often not expensive. In the 1980s, aNavaho Indian decided to make a stuffedtoy from a Pendleton wool blanket. Today,a vintage Pendleton wool blanket in goodcondition can sell for hundreds of dollars.But 30 years ago, a worn Pendleton blan-ket had a lower value, so it was cut upand turned into a toy. The result was aplush toucan bird that looks like the Tou-can Sam logo for Froot Loops cereal. Thefinished bird measures 16 by 11 inches.Allard Auctions of St. Ignatius, Mont.,sold it for $115 at a March 2014 auctionheld in Mesa, Ariz. There were 11 bids.

***

Q: I have a glass quart jar that’sembossed “1776” above the LibertyBell and “1976” below it. The other sideof the jar is embossed “Mason’s.” Is itworth anything?

A: Canning jars like yours were madeby Anchor Hocking of Lancaster, Ohio, tocelebrate the 1976 Bicentennial of theUnited States. The jars often are foundtoday and sell for $5 to $10.

***

Q: My husband was a cartoonist andsometimes corresponded with CharlesSchulz, famous for his “Peanuts” comicstrip. When my husband had heart sur-gery, Schulz sent him two of his originalPeanuts strips. Each one is about 30inches long and 6 inches high and issigned “Schulz.” My husband has sincedied and the strips now belong to me andour children. One strip features CharlieBrown and Snoopy, and the other Lucyand Schroeder. Please tell me what thestrips are worth.

A: If the strips are indeed originalworks by Charles Schulz, they’re valuable.Some have sold at auction for $15,000.The first thing you want to do is makesure you are storing them safely by usingarchival papers and boxes. Keep themaway from direct light. Insure them. If thestrips are not marked with a date, try tofind out when they first ran. If you want tosell, contact a reputable auction housethat deals in comic art.

Q: I am thinking about selling a setof Sascha Brastoff dishes. The dishesare pink and gold and include service foreight. I think the dishes date from 1949.What is the set worth?

A: Sascha Brastoff (1918-1993),born Samuel Brostofsky, was raised inCleveland but moved to New York Citywhen he was 17. After serving in thearmed forces during World War II, hesettled in Los Angeles and worked as acostume designer for 20th Century Foxbefore starting his own small ceramicbusiness in 1947. His company, Sas-cha Brastoff Products, opened in 1952.Brastoff’s earliest china and earthenwaredinner services date from 1954, so yourset is not as old as you think. His best-known pink-and-gold pattern is “Surf Bal-let.” Check the mark on the bottom ofyour dishes; it can help determine whenthey were made. Brastoff’s earliest markwas his first name, hand-painted. Whena new Brastoff factory opened in 1953,a stamped mark was used that includesa rooster and Brastoff’s full name. After

1963, the year Brastoff retired, the cir-cled-R registration number was added tothe mark. An early complete set of Sas-cha Brastoff dishes could sell for severalhundred dollars.

***

Q: My grandmother gave us a silverbowl that she got as a gift in the 1950sor ‘60s. It’s 8 1/2 inches in diameter.The bottom is marked with the lion, an-chor and old English letter “G” mark usedby Gorham. The sides of the bowl are en-graved with three initials and the years1854 and 1904. We’re thinking of sellingit or recycling it for scrap value. Can youtell us what it’s worth?

A: The dates and monogrammedinitials on your bowl indicate it probablywas made to mark some event, perhapsa 50th anniversary. Silver is always worthat least its meltdown value. If a piece ofsilver also has sentimental value, fami-lies often keep it regardless of the melt-down value. Take the bowl to a jeweleror dealer in gold and silver to find out itsminimum value. The price of silver fluctu-ates, and the value will depend upon thecurrent price of silver, the weight of thebowl, and whether it’s solid silver or silverplate. You should get at least meltdownprice from an antiques dealer or auction.

***

Q: I have a complete set of six Gor-ham silver-plated bronze figural bells.They date from the late 1970s and weresold as limited editions by the HamiltonCollection. The series is titled “WomenWho Changed the Course of History.” Theset includes Catherine the Great, Mariede Medici, Marie Antoinette, Isabella I,Elizabeth I and Mary, Queen of Scots.Please tell me the current value of theset.

A: Your bells were part of the fad oflimited edition plates, figurines and bellsso popular in the 1970s. Each bell soldback then for $75, and 5,000 sets weremade. Today you would be lucky to get$200 for the set.

***

Tip: But a piece of plastic jewelryunder hot water. When the plastic getswarm, smell it. Bakelite smells like form-aldehyde, celluloid smells like camphor(mothballs), and Galalith, a 1920s plas-tic, smells like burnt milk. Lucite doesnot smell.

‘Walking theCamino’: A long, strained tripBy STEPHANIE MERRY

Special To The Washington Post

Depending on how you look at it,a movie about El Camino de Santiagocould be brilliant or brutally boring.

On one hand, the pilgrimage, whichstarted as a religious processionalto the shrine of St. James in Galicia,Spain, more than 1,000 years ago, is anawe-inspiring feat of human stamina;on the other, it’s a 500-mile walk.

The good-natured documentary“Walking the Camino: Six Ways toSantiago” tends toward the positiveend of the spectrum.

Director Lydia Smith opts to showa wealth of experiences along theCamino, although focusing deeply ona couple of travelers might have mademore of an impact.

Smith follows six groups of hikersdeparting from Southern France, eachon the trek for their own reasons.

For one man, it was either theCamino or learning to kite-surf, whilea British-Brazilian woman sees thejourney as the next logical, radicalstep to rejiggering her life, since she’s

already chopped off and bleached herhair. Others travel alone, looking forsolitude, although one French womanbrings along her 3-year-old son, whichis either adventurous or insane.

The experience of walking varieswildly from person to person. A cou-ple of middle-age men from Canadawander day after day, weathering therain and sunburns without complaint,while an American woman cries near-ly every time she’s interviewed. Herdebilitating tendinitis threatens herprospects of making it to Galicia.

One of the most important parts ofmaking a documentary like “Walkingthe Camino” is selecting subjects.

A filmmaker tends to start theprocess following a bunch of peopleand then whittles it down to the mostworthwhile characters. In the caseof this movie, there’s a sense that theroster could have been better honed.

Few of the hikers turn out to beparticularly memorable. Seeing whatit takes to travel with a 3-year-old onthe Camino is more interesting thanwatching a woman suffer with soreknees. And following along on the

fledgling relationship of a man and awoman who met on the Camino turnsout to be more rewarding than themore run-of-the-mill tale of a womanseeking reinvention. It’s possible thatall the subjects would have made moreof an impression had the film stayedwith them for longer periods insteadof jumping constantly from group togroup.

That being said, the movie’s othersubject – the Camino itself – is morethan ably captured. The scenery is sospectacular, rain or shine, that evenclose-ups of grotesque blisters and pil-grims weeping from pain can’t detera viewer from wanting to see the pathfor herself.

“Walking the Camino: Six Ways toSantiago” may not be entirely bril-liant, but it’s at the very least inspir-ing.

• “Walking the Camino: Six Waysto Santiago” received two-and-a-halfstars out of four. The film is unratedand contains nothing objectionable. Itis in English and Spanish with subti-tles and runs 84 minutes.

DVICE

Dr.Wallace: I’m a

16-year-old sophomore in

high school and I’d like

to comment on the ad-

vice you gave a girl who,

after graduating, wanted

to ask a former teacher

for a date. You advised

her not to. I was shocked

at your response.

Ever since I was in

seventh grade I’ve had

a crush on a certain

teacher. My mother told

me that I would forget

all about him when I

got into high school and

started dating.

Well, I’m in high

school now and I’ve

dated guys my own age,

but my crush on this

teacher has grown into

a full-fledged love. I still

see him often and we

discuss many things.

When I graduate

from high school I plan

to have a relationship

with this former teacher.

And why not? He is a

super human being. He

is single and I’m sure

he would accept my

invitation.

I saw a television

program that featured

students who, after

graduation, married

a teacher they had in

high school. They were

happily married and

loved each other very

much. The student was

always a female and the

teacher was male. In

some cases the teacher

was only five years

older than the student

he married.

Dr. Wallace, aren’t

you aware that true love

conquers all? – Name-less, Anaheim, Calif.

Dear Nameless:Cer-

tain television programs

seek high ratings by

producing programs

that are highly contro-

versial or that dwell

on sensationalism to

invite viewers to tune

in. The mere fact that

the program dealt with

this issue tells me that

the marriage of former

students and their

teachers is not a normal

occurrence and that it is

highly controversial. It’s

interesting to note that

all the former students

were females.

Teachers have a mor-

al obligation not to get

involved romantically

with their students, and

those who do are subject

to termination.

When a teacher gets

involved romantically

with a former student

who has left high school,

no action by school

authorities can be taken,

but the teaching profes-

sion still frowns upon

this type of relationship.

I’m also aware that

some students mistak-

enly take a teacher’s con-

cern for them as a signal

that romance is forth-

coming. That could very

well be the case with

your former teacher.

Dr.Wallace:My

half-sister is 19 and has

a boyfriend who is 18.

Whenever he comes over

to visit her (my half-sis-

ter and I still live at

home), he gives me the

“eye.” If he really cared

for her he wouldn’t be

looking at me.

I honestly think

Kevin and I would make

a better couple. Do you

think that it would

be all right if I took

Kevin away from my

half-sister? It wouldn’t

be hard to do, and after

all, it’s “all fair in love

and war.” – Nameless,Davenport, Iowa.

Dear Nameless:As

long as your sister is

dating Kevin, stay away

from him. There are

hundreds of guys your

age in Davenport that

you could probably date.

No need to horn in on a

family member.

Dear Abby: I’m a 32-year-oldwoman who is HIV-positive. Mycolleague – who is unaware of mystatus – recently introduced meto a relative of hers who is alsolonely and looking for someoneto settle down with. We “clicked”and seem to complement eachother in every way, although wehaven’t had any sexual encounter.

My fear is, how do I disclosemy status without being rejected?He seems to have big plans forus, which include settling downand having kids in the future. Iam also worried that he mightbe angry with my colleague andnot believe that she is unawareof my status. Please help me getout of this dilemma. – In A Spot InSouth Africa

Dear In A Spot: I’ll try, butthere are no guarantees. Muchdepends upon the strength of thisman’s feelings for you. It is veryimportant that you have a frankdiscussion with him before therelationship goes any further.

The fact that you are HIV-pos-itive may be problematic, but itdoes not mean you cannot havea family together if you wishin the future. Medications andother medical interventions canhelp keep the virus from beingtransmitted to your children,and condoms can protect yourpartner.

If you are upfront about yourstatus, the chances are better thathe will believe you when you tellhim his relative was not awarethat you have HIV when youwere introduced. In a case likethis, honesty is the best policy.

Dear Abby: I have three grownsons, all educated, married andsuccessful. Their wives are thedaughters I never had, and Itreasure them and their children.

I’m blessed with three perfectgrandchildren under the age of 5.

The problem is my sons.Although I raised them carefullywith love, they are like teenag-ers. They constantly denigrateand fight with each other, andmeasure my time with them ona competitive scale. I no longerwant to be involved with theirbickering. Their dad, from whomI am separated, is not involved.

This has created a sad cloud inmy otherwise sunny life. I needsome advice. – Tied In Knots InIndianapolis

Dear Tied In Knots:Have youtold your sons how uncomfort-able their sibling quibblingmakes you? If you haven’t, youshould. And if that doesn’t im-prove the situation, I suggest yousee them separately. And if thatcauses problems, please don’tmake it YOUR problem.

• Write Dear Abby at www.dearabby.com.

Dear Doctor K:My doctor says Ihave restless leg syndrome. Whatis it, and how is it treated?

Dear Reader: Restless legssyndrome (RLS) is a brain andnervous system disorder thatcauses uncomfortable sensationsin the legs. The discomfort isusually accompanied by an over-whelming urge to move the legs.Doing so can temporarily relievethe discomfort.

The odd sensations are usuallyworst below the knees and usual-ly felt in both legs. In people withmore severe symptoms, similarsensations can affect the arms.

The uncomfortable sensationscaused by RLS are worse duringperiods of rest, especially justbefore sleeping or during sleep.My patients with this conditionhave used different words todescribe the sensations that theyfeel in their legs. Sometimes theysimply describe “pains” in theirlegs. Often they use more colorfulwords: “tingling,” “prickly,” “likesomething’s crawling on me,”“like little worms are wrigglingunderneath my skin,” “like some-thing is pulling at my skin.”

Because RLS symptoms areworse at night – or, in manycases, occur only at night – sleepdeprivation can be a majorproblem for people with RLS.Symptoms may make it difficultto fall asleep, or they may compela person to get in and out of bed

many times. Even asleep, patientstypically shift position every 15 to30 minutes.

During the day, symptoms areworse when sitting still. The con-dition can make it difficult to takecar or plane trips, enjoy a movieor even hold a desk job.

RLS is present more often inpeople with certain conditions. Atthe top of the list is iron deficien-cy. Kidney disease, diabetes, mul-tiple sclerosis, varicose veins inthe legs and Parkinson’s diseaseare also on the list.

Alcohol, nicotine and caffeinecan aggravate the condition. Socan several medications; the SSRIanti-depressants, amitriptylineand anti-psychotic medicines maybe the most common culprits.

Treatment depends on theseverity of symptoms. Formild symptoms, exercising,stretching, doing knee bends ormassaging your legs can help.Some people get temporary reliefby taking a hot bath or applyingcold or warm compresses to thelegs.

Lifestyle changes also mayhelp. Try to eat a balanced diet.Avoid caffeine, alcohol and ciga-rette smoking. Iron supplements

may also help, even if you don’thave an iron deficiency.

Many experts also recommendmentally challenging activities,such as crossword puzzles orvideo games, to reduce symptoms(perhaps by distraction).

A number of medications,taken individually or in combina-tion, can help relieve symptoms:

• Dopaminergic agents. Thesedrugs relieve discomfort andimprove sleep quality.

• Benzodiazepines. These seda-tives improve sleep quality.

• Anti-convulsants. Thesemedicines are especially useful inpatients who experience pain.

• Opioids. These narcotic drugsare used to relieve pain and sup-press RLS in people with severe,unrelenting symptoms that do notrespond to other treatments. Theycan be habit-forming.

You may not have heard aboutRLS until you were diagnosedwith it. Lots of my patients hav-en’t. However, surveys find thatit may affect 5 to 10 percent of theadult population. Often it has notbeen diagnosed: Either peopledon’t tell their doctor about it,or the doctor doesn’t make thediagnosis.

Do you finesse orplay high?

We are looking at situationsin which third hand should orshould not follow the “third-handhigh” mantra. Which is righthere? South is in four hearts.West leads a fourth-highestdiamond two. After dummy playslow, should East put in his nineor rise with the king?

North knew that his handwas a tad strong for a four-heart“weak freak” raise, but he knewthat it was unlikely his side hada slam, and he was worried thatthe opponents might be able to dowell in spades.

East should work out who haswhat in diamonds. He knows thatSouth has the ace, because Westwould not have led a diamondaway from the ace. And Southpresumably has three diamonds.West probably has the queen,and might have the 10 as well.(If West had started with 10-highdiamonds, he likely would haveled from a stronger suit.)

However, the key point is thatif East plays his king, declarermust get two diamond tricks: hisace and, later, dummy’s jack. Butif East puts in his nine, perhapshe can hold South to one dia-mond winner.

Yes, West will be momentarilymisled about the diamond posi-tion, but East will clarify whenin with his heart king, cashingthe diamond king and playinganother round of the suit.

You can see that in thislayout, playing the diamond nineis critical. It allows the defendersto take one heart, two diamondsand one club.

The usual rule is: When dum-my has one honor, third handholds a higher honor, and dum-my plays low, third hand saveshis honor when he can insert anine or higher.
